BARTACK BUTTONHOLE

Applications

Buttonholes

Machine buttonholes are quick and easy to sew. Check your machine manual for details on how to create buttonholes for your specific machine model. Tip: If your machine model doesn't have an automatic tie-off, use a hand sewing needle to bring the thread tails to the back side of your project, then tie them to secure so that the buttonhole stitches don't unravel.

Decorative Stitching

Try sewing the buttonhole stitch as a decorative stitch. Sew several on the fabric as desired. Don't cut them open - simply use them as a way to add surface embellishment to your fabric!

Decorative Eyelets

Use your machine's buttonhole function to create small "eyelets". By making very short buttonholes, you can create openings through which you can weave ribbons or cords, for decorative embellishment.
